You can now add things to the game using the touch screen. So, whoever is used the Upad is god more or less.

I don't know know what people are complaining about with the graphics either. They lookfairly improved to me. Just look at those graphics in the stage with the spinning stars.

Video is in the link.

I can't wait to play this!!!!!!!

The graphics didn't look too improved. I think 3D games would show off the potential better.

Game is looking good, but that gamepad implementation is simply the worst so far, including all games, even multiplats. It's good only for

1 - Screwing people - gets old in 10 seconds
2 - Cheating

Thank god the game is a classic Mario and does not need that.

As much as I appreciate Nintendo's novelty of asymmetrical playing, I fear it's not for me. I generally don't have others over to play in person with me anymore, and even when I do we will want to be doing the same thing together, not taking on different roles.

I hope this asymmetrical play isn't integral to their games and only adds somewhat superfluous content.

Wow, I actually think the Asymmetric part is fun! I was real skeptical at first, but it's actually not half bad! And the graphics look sharp, I just can't wait for 3D Mario.. If SMG looked that good, I can't imagine how SMG HD would look!

Wow, they are bad at Mario games.

OT: the platform drawing is quite boring and annoying.

I'm sure it's going to be pretty good, it's a platforming good 'ol Mario game!

Not bad

The graphics look amazing, I can't wait to play this. Don't care much about the asymetric gameplay but the single player + new powerups and awesome graphics have me sold.
